The traitor's emblem : a novel / Juan Gómez-Jurado ; translated by Daniel Hahn.
The Straits of Gibraltar, 1940. Captain Gonzalez rescues a group of German castaways from a storm while at sea. In gratitude, one of the survivors offers the captain a strange-looking emblem made of gold and diamonds. Many years later, the captain's son receives a substantial offer for the mysterious object. He refuses to sell, but in the process learns its astonishing history. Juan Gomez-Jurado weaves together an epic mystery (inspired by real-life events) set against the rise of Nazism and spanning decades of family betrayal, impossible love, and the high price of vengeance.
